Funny episode. I expected the Sena bath time service to be a little better though. Better how? I'm not quite sure. I think he running out the front door so foolishly ruined it a little...

Anyway, I love how despite the random hijinks and the various forms of fan service, we STILL have a plot going. Good stuff here, good stuff.

For me I would actually say I like the running out butt naked thing.

Don't get me wrong I love my fan service as much as the next but the running out naked joke plays exactly with the series and for that I love it.
Cause I do think I did laugh a little too hard at it, the way she runs out all "Hahaha Hehehe" and then "....OMGWTF?!...NOOOOOOEEESS!!"

I never would have thought I say I prefer a good joke over simply fan service for such a character as Sena but then it's not just Sena's look I'm so into, it's the whole package

The episode was a good laugh, probably my favorite so far.
I thought we weren't gonna see Yozora's prison style swimsuit but we do.
I like it cause it's funny and strange cuase of how well she dresses casually.
Also as much as I love Kobato in her cosplay, she's a whole lot cuter in casuals.
It's that weird thing again where you see a cast in uniform most of the time, so casual clothes look great when they wear them for a change or if they are wearing casual clothes mostly and then some sorta uniform, cosplay or whatever will look great cause it's different.
One of life's little mysteries.

Poor Kobato, she's so scared of Sena, she's developed her own spidey sense

I didn't like how she just tripped and I thought she noticed him a little late. I agree that it does fit, but this is opinion here, sooo yeah.

Sena was pretty much in her own imouto route yuri fantasies. Until the sight of the lone male snapped her out of it, that is.

I need to say something.

Stella.

She is full of win. She showed that even without wearing the usual cliche french maid outfit, one female servant can ooze sexiness and class. Why? Because she is motherfucking Stella. With three lines, she left quite a big impression on me. "Don't stare at me, I might get pregnant.", "Oh Kodaka you pervert...", then, this last line, delivered with a cold, deadpan, matter-of-fact tone, "I sleep completely naked.", that one line just sealed the deal for me.

I long for more Stella, possibly in a hypothetical second season, but it is going to be hard. So Haganai is, with Madoka, steins,gate and Fate Zero the series of 2011 that makes me want to purchase their DVDs/BluRay. I will do so for Haganai, if that means getting closer to the limit that gets the greenlight for a second season. For Stella.

i'm fully expecting a reveal that Kobato isn't actually his blood related sister. With how much she loves him it wouldn't be the least bit surprising to me. Maybe she IS sena's sister but was instead raised by Kodaka's family from some reason only rich people can understand.

Agreed. Kobato not being Kodaka's sister would completely ruin the relationship they have...not to mention the awkwardness that will be made because Kobato has revealed herself a number of times to Kodaka and even pressed herself against him when naked at times. The cute little sister and respectful Onii-chan would fly out the window...plus, I like them as brother and sister

Think of the new names he would get called by the other club members...well...except Rika...she would actually quite enjoy that

I was so scared for Kobato when she agreed to take a bath with Sena while half-asleep. And I was so sad that I didn't get to see what happened. Also, what was up with Pegasus's drunk voice? It sounded like his nose was blocked off or something.

Hm, I did not really say that, based on blood relation, in the end it is insignificant... from my perspective, Kobato or Kodaka developing sexual lust for each other would be completely out of character, and basically ruin their relationship's excellent characterazation that the show has thus far achieved.

Oh no, I know you didn't say that, I was just giving my thoughts to the matter I Didn't mean to make you think I was trying to agree to something you didn't say.

I can't believe that this only just now occurred to me: Hasn't Yozora spent 8 episodes flashing her (sometimes apparently bare) backside under that skirt? The full body swimwear just seems so much more ridiculous, and yet so... Yozora.

Somehow I don't think Yozora is going to progress much until the childhood thing is confronted. That part of her past made her completely broken, much more then Kodaka.

Sena ending up being some kind of blood relative would ruin the series, and her father apparently likes the potential pairing between her and Kodaka (which probably won't happen anyway, because the "childhood friend/love" almost always wins...)

Maybe, but in Yozura's case, it would seriously hinder her development, or break her completely. She puts on a really good mask, but she's a classic glass-type character who went so far as to make up a club just so she could have a chance to get Kodaka to remember her (I think she wants other friends too, but her primary goal has always been him.) Progression to romance between the two would also end up with a stronger pairing then any of the other characters, even Sena.

Sena on the other hand just came looking for friends, and she's found them, even if she doesn't realize it yet (or any of them for that matter.) Romantic entanglement with Kodaka isn't needed for her to accomplish her original goal and develop as a character. People just really like her (I know I do too) and want to see the pairing, but forget how much it would hurt Yozura.

Anyway, I see a lot of parallels with Love Hina and the childhood thing, and we all know how that ended.
